Trinet News - Sasimohana Kanthikiran: Whether virtue or sin, everyone must inevitably experience the fruit of their actions. Some time ago, the entire world fell into a terrifying crisis. Who was responsible for this? Wasn't it driven by selfish human thoughts? Wasn't China's selfish desire to destroy fellow nations and rule as a superpower the cause of this disaster? What happened in the end? First, its own country fell into danger, and then nations around the world fell prey to that pandemic. Millions of citizens fell like leaves, and the death toll echoed not just in China, but across the entire globe.
It is said that when infested lentils are dried in the hot sun, the good lentils mixed with them also get burnt. The situation was just like that. Our calculations do not matter; God has His own calculations, and He weighs rights and wrongs. What we do might seem correct to us, but there is the Almighty's ledger. Inside it lies our account—our record of sins and virtues. The Kurukshetra war was fought due to Duryodhana's wicked thoughts, leading to massive loss of life. World wars happened similarly, resulting in total destruction. What was achieved in the end? Nothing except devastation. 'Destruction brings perverted thinking'—that is what it means.
Does anyone who accumulates wealth through deceit enjoy it forever, or take it with them? No matter how great a warrior, emperor, or mighty person one may be, they must inevitably embrace death. No one takes anything with them when they leave; even our own body does not accompany us. Look at the recent floods in Nepal, for instance. Due to nature's fierce form, buildings collapsed, entire villages were washed away, and thousands of people went missing or were swept away by the disaster. All the assets accumulated with greed turned to water, and many were buried in the mud. Everywhere, nature performed its destructive dance. Who wrote these destinies? Truly tragic, isn't it? That is why, oh people, harbor only good thoughts, and good results will follow. Live as a true human being. May all be auspicious, good morning... Sasibala.
As anyone's karma must be experienced by themselves, who can say when and in what manner it unfolds? Experiencing it is indeed mysterious. Everyone must bear the consequences of the sins they commit. We may not be at fault in our own calculations, but God's calculation exists. God is also within us—He is our inner conscience, which keeps telling us whenever we do something wrong, though we refuse to listen. Baba said, 'Help Ever, Hurt Never.' If you can, help others; otherwise, stay quiet. But never cause harm to anyone. Wealth earned by cheating and depriving others will not last. Even if it lasts, the sin reaches the heirs along with the assets.
We have many examples right before our eyes. Many lose their loved ones in accidents right in front of them and cannot save them no matter how much money they spend. Why? Some lament, saying, 'We only helped everyone, why is this happening to us?' It is then that one must realize that even if no sin was committed in this birth, the karmic fruits of a past life are being experienced. This may not be understood initially, but it becomes clear in the final moments—though by then, time has already run out. Therefore, friends, whatever you sow is for yourselves, whether sin or virtue. No one can predict what will happen to whom and when. 'Life is a miracle.'
*** History repeats itself *** Good morning... Sasibala
